Se realizó una investigación cuasi experimental para demostrar los beneficios de implementar un modelo de seguimiento en atención primaria, se trabajó la concentración de hemoglobina y número de caries, se seleccionó como población a gestantes y niños de hasta cinco años de edad adscritos a la Posta Médica de Uchiza. Los resultados mostraron que, tanto en niños como en gestantes, el modelo de seguimiento permite el incremento de la concentración de hemoglobina en comparación con el grupo no sujeto a seguimiento, así mismo, en niños, el modelo logra una reducción significativa de las caries en el grupo con seguimiento; aunque en las gestantes, los resultados finales no son diferentes entre ambos grupos, existe una mayor reducción en aquellas que fueron sometidas a seguimiento.

Introduction: The objective of the present study was to identify food habits and psychological conditions which act as associated factors to Irritable Bowel Syndrome in the outpatient service of gastroenterology at the Huánuco base hospital ESSALUD-2009. Methods: We performed an observational, analytical, longitudinal and retrospective case-control study, matched by age and gender. Cases were people diagnosed of IBS according to the Rome III criteria in 2009. We worked with a sample size of 210 outpatients:105 cases and 105 controls (type1error = 0,05, potency = 0.8, exposed cases probability = 43,5%, exposed controls probability = 25%).Convenience Sampling. Variables studied as risk factors for IBS were food habits and anxiety/depression, measured by a dietary questionnaire adapted and evaluated by expert opinion and HADS score respectively. Results: The average age of patients was 51,...
